McDonald's did a lot of things wrong with their plant-based meat burger. If you want to see it done right, just take a look at Burger King. In Germany, you can now substitute animal meat for plant-based meat in every burger, and on top of that they have very tasty plant-based burgers like the long chicken and vegan chicken nuggets. In Vienna, they've opened their first 100% plant-based location.
And yes, Beyond Meat's stock is not doing well, but this doesn't mean plant-based meats in general aren't doing well.
- Clampower 4y agoMcDonald’s Netherlands did the most idiotic approach. They started offering vegetarian burgers that were made of like 80% dairy. So incredibly stupid I still can’t believe it.
- Vibgyor5 4y agoEnlighten me - what's stupid about it?
- polski-g 4y agoAll vegans are vegetarians. So those burgers are not an option for some portion of vegetarians
- shlant 4y agoas a vegan myself - have you ever considered that not every meat alternative is made for you?

- outime 4y agoI humbly suggest to change your communication efforts towards your cause. It'll only cause rejection if you keep using pretentious statements.

- kennend3 4y ago> Be on the right side of history on this one, folks. this is a clear indicator you are a "lost cause" social justice warrior type. Equating slavery and eating meats.. OMG. Have you considered taking an African safari and encouraging lions to stop eating meats? Why do people like you use "be on the right side of history" and other catch buzzword type sayings?
- shlant 4y agoI see you are just another vegan who cares more about feeling morally superior over reducing the most animal suffering. I can only assume you haven't been vegan long or else I feel very doubtful of our movement to change many more peoples minds.
- Clampower 4y agoPhew where do I begin? From a sustainability POV, using living beings for milk production is vastly worse than a plant based alternative. From a animal friendliness perspective, it abuses the same animals that would be slaughtered for meat, for long periods of time in cruel ways. From a business and consumer POV, this limits your burger to only Omni and vegetarians, excluding the entire market of vegans, and people with dairy intolerances who would opt for this option instead. All around a PR inspired, stupid half measure that is insulting at best.
- ianai 4y agoMost stocks have been taking a massive hit and valuations are down near 2020s lows for the first time. Reads like opportunism to knock on new market entrants through a bit piece. Are they going to claim EVs are failing next, too? How about solar? Why not go all out.
- shafyy 4y agoExactly. For example, Shopify's stock is also down a lot and nobody is saying that e-commerce is dead.
